Day-by-Day Itinerary

Day 1 Your 1000 Islands cruise commences with boarding in historic Kingston, Ontario. If possible, plan to arrive in Kingston early and spend some time in this historic and vibrant community.
Day 2 Weigh anchor to wander leisurely through the Admiralty Group of the Thousand Islands, view La Duchesse, a beautiful houseboat owned by the Boldt family, then continue down Millionaires' row—once the playground of the rich and famous from the turn of the last century—and on east to Brockville to view the Railway tunnel. Return up river on the Canadian side to arrive at Rockport where a bus will be waiting for a transfer to the 1000 Islands Skydeck for a panoramic view of the Islands from 350 feet.
Day 3 Depart Rockport bound for Gananoque and a guided tour of the Heritage Museum of the 1000 Islands. Then it is on to Kingston for Debarkation in front of Kingston's majestic City Hall. Unfortunately, all good things have to come to an end, but not before our closing ceremonies in the Grand Saloon.
